Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

MSS025030 - Assist with assessing site environmental indicators

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Read and interpret existing site or locality information

  1. Confirm the scope of the proposed project and details of the site or locality
  2. Identify legislative, regulatory and planning requirements relevant to project
  3. Access, read and interpret available information about the site or locality
  4. Summarise existing data and relate them to legislative, planning and organisational requirements relevant to project
Confirm the scope of the proposed project and details of the site or locality

Identify environmental indicators relevant to site or locality

  1. Determine which environmental indicators and statutory environmental quality concentration limits are relevant to proposed project and requirements of site or locality
  2. Identify core environmental indicators and source and collate data
  3. Identify statutory environmental quality concentration limits and source and collate data
  4. Identify additional site, locality or project specific environmental indicators and source and collate data
  5. Identify gaps in available data and refer to supervisor for further action

Analyse data to establish environmental condition of site or locality

  1. Determine compatibility of data sets and seek advice on any issues
  2. Compare compatible data with core environmental indicators, established standards, regulatory limits, and statutory environmental quality concentration limits
  3. Apply environmental chemistry and biodiversity concepts and principles to estimate the environmental health of the site or locality
  4. Identify significant trends in environmental data and correlations and differences with indicators
  5. Make a final assessment of environmental condition of site or locality to meet project requirements
  6. Report final assessment of environmental condition in required format and expected timeframe
  7. Brief supervisor and stakeholders about environmental assessment process and outcomes
